The effect of sowing time, from late April to late June, on the development, yield and quality of the mid-season barley cultivar, Weeah, was examined from 1970 to 1972 in the Victorian Mallee. The length of the pre-flowering phase decreased with later sowing and there was a quadratic relationship between yield and sowing date. Grain nitrogen varied inversely with yield.

Results of a two-year investigation (2005 and 2006) for the yield and quality of fenugreek seed (Trigonella foenum graecum L) obtained on the location in South Banat (around Pancevo) on marsh dark soil are presented in the paper. Fenugreek seed used in this investigation was produced in the collection of the Institute of Medicinal Plant Research "Dr Josif Pancic" in Pancevo. The effect of sowing date on yield (kg/ha) and quality of fenugreek seed (germination energy and total germination) were investigated. Sowing was carried out on seven dates, 10 days between dates of each sowing. Yield of fenugreek seed sowed on different dates differed in both years. Sowing carried out in the first two weeks in April resulted in considerably higher yield compared to sowing at the end of April and during May. The highest yield was produced in the second sowing date from April 10, then in the first (April 1) and the third sowing period (April 20). The lowest yield of fenugreek seed was recorded in sowing carried out at the end of May. Yield of fenugreek seed wasn't significantly different in study years. Earlier dates of sowing resulted in seed of better quality (better germination energy and total germination). In the second sowing date fenugreek seed obtained was of best germination energy and total germination (approx. 99%). Later sowing dates gave seed of lower quality. So, sowing carried out at the end of May resulted in seed with the lowest value of germination energy and total germination (approx. 91%).

Goal. To substantiate the technology of growing fennel in Lisste. Crop accounting was performed by continuous submerged threshing. Methods. The yield was brought to 100% purity and standard humidity according to the method described by V.O. Moiseychenko and V.O. Yeshchenko. Mathematical data processing was performed according to the method of B.A. Dopehova. Results. The article highlights the results of studies of technological factors influence (sowing time, seeding rates, row spacing, growth regulators and terms of their application) on the yield and quality of fennel seeds when grown in the Western Forest-Steppe. Indicators of yield and content of essential oil in seeds depending on the studied factors are given. According to the research results, on average over the years of research the yield of fennel seeds at 1.56 t / ha was obtained by sowing at the level of thermal regime of the soil 6–80C in a wide row at 45 cm by seeding rate of one million sprouting seeds per hectare. Among the studied agents Vermiyodis was the best when used for seed treatment, and the agent Humifield – for the treatment of vegetative plants, the yield on these variants exceeded the control by: 0.28 and 0.30 t / ha, respectively. The maximum content of essential oil in the same variants of experiments was determined. In addition, calculations have been made which show that the maximum conditional oil yield of 60 kg / ha was observed in the variant of sowing in the first term with a row spacing of 45 cm and the sowing rate of one million sprouting seeds per hectare. The use of growth regulators helped to increase the conditional yield of essential oil by 4.5–11.6 kg / ha. Conclusions. Тo ensure the yield of fennel seeds at the level of 1.56-1.8 t / ha, the content of essential oil in the seeds - in the range of 6.26-6.36% in the Western Forest-Steppe, we offer sowing at the level of soil thermal regime 6-80C in a wide row at 45 cm sowing rate of one million such seeds per hectare, in the phase of plant stems - spraying crops growth regulator Humifield at the rate of 100 g / ha, dissolved in 250 liters of water.

SUMMARYTwo varieties of okra were sown at approximately 14-day intervals from 1 April to 1 June for 2 years during the main rainy season in Nigeria. Low soil temperature and moisture, which resulted from a combined effect of high solar radiation, high atmospheric temperature and low rainfall, led to poor seedling emergence at the early sowing dates.The growth of the fewer plants of the early sowing dates were more vigorous than those of later sowing dates and they attained 50% flowering earlier and had a longer harvest duration. This resulted in increases in number of pods per plant, pod length, pod diameter, pod volume, pod weight and pod yield per ha, indicating compensatory growth by the fewer plants in the early plantings. The relatively lower values obtained for these variables with the late sowing dates were also attributed to possible poor soil aeration arising from the increased rainfall during their growth period.Sowing dates did not generally affect the percentage moisture, oil and protein in the pods. The effects of varieties on the variables measured were more uniform than those of sowing dates and mostly not significant.

Late Sowing

The millet is a very special plant with good adaptation that gives the possibility for the late sowing and secondary production. However the effects of late sowing modifies to the efficiency of the agrotechnological elements. The examinations – focused on this aspect – was conducted in the DU CAS RINY in the small plots in four replications in 2013. The largest effect was recorded in the sowing time of the examined factors (sowing time, nutrient supply, growing area). The effectiveness of the agrotechnological elements decreases under unfavourable circumstances caused by the late sowing. The examined factors did not affect in the protein content and milling rate, except in the latest sowing time when protein content was significantly the highest.
